About
Private - Group - Corporate - Virtual Primordial Sound Meditation: Primordial Sound Meditation (PSM) is a powerful healing practice, which origins are from the ancient Vedic tradition of India. Chopra Center co-founders Dr. Deepak Chopra and Dr. David Simon have revived this ancient practice and made it available in a format that’s easy to learn. I n Primordial Sound Meditation, we use the vehicle of sound, in the form of a mantra, enabling us to move beyond the mind’s busy activity and emotional turbulence into profound peace and expanded awareness. Primordial sounds are the basic, most essential sounds of nature. Your personal mantra is one of the 108 prime seed sounds of the Sanskrit language. The mantra you will receive is the vibration the universe was creating at the time and place of your birth, and it is calculated following Vedic mathematic formulas. IM Meditation In Motion: IM Meditation-In-Motion combines the techniques of meditation accompanied by the gentle rhythms of music and the expression of intuitive body movements. This form enables the student to achieve a state of calmness as they align their mind, body and spirit. T his form is especially beneficial for those who believe they cannot sit still and meditate. With this practice students will be able to finally experience the stillness within. A s the great Sufi poet wrote “In order to understand the dance, one must be still. And in order to truly understand stillness one must dance”. Classes Offered
 I started the Primordial Sound Meditation session a little apprehensive because I wasn’t sure if I could meditate properly with all the thoughts going through my mind regarding the state of the world with the COVID-19 health crisis. Ms. Marquez put me at ease ad made me feel so relaxed. She explained her process and gave me a gift of focus. After the session I felt so much lighter and ready to do more because of the weight lifted—a feeling I haven’t experienced in a long time. I cannot thank Ms. Marquez enough for sharing her gift with me (and the world). She is phenomenal. N. Johnson, UCI Instructor k As a psychotherapist that uses only science-based practices, I approached Ingrid Marquez’s Meditaiton-In-Motion with a strong degree of skepticism. I took a leap of faith and in one session I was overwhelmed by its beauty, and simplicity. Ingrid is an infinitely warm and experienced meditation teacher. She guided me very gently through her process, enabling me to release fear, and incredibly, blocked emotions that I had held with my body for many years. Ingrid is a progressive and gifted practitioner and I recommend her without hesitation.
